Now Gove's true intentions come to light:

He did admit, however, that he was open-minded on such free schools making a profit, unlike other members of the coalition.

Does this worry anybody apart from me?
I have a huge problem with free schools making a profit - I don't have a problem with them making a surplus, which is then re-invested in the school facilities and infrastructure, but not a profit to be paid to staff/owners.
